For the past year, a group of 10 campuses have worked together to adopt one or more components of the TIER software — an identity and access management suite consisting of Shibboleth, Grouper, COmanage, midPoint, and other components. The philosophy behind this Campus Success Program (CSP) is that collaborating would make things easier for the individual campuses and will help accelerate software adoption.

On July 17, the Shibboleth Consortium released a major new update to its Shibboleth Service Provider (SP) software, version 3.0. As of the writing of this blog, version 3.0.2 is the latest supported release of this software.
